What Size Of Assist Hook Cord?

[JuniorJigs]

I am from ocean city new jersey and was wondering what size assist cord i should use for jigging tuna. The tuna i have caught in the past range from 50 to 125 pounds. Does anyone have a idea or any suggestions?


Size / Tensile Strength / Thickness:

# 30 = 150kg (300lb) / 1.05mm

# 50 = 250kg (500lb) / 1.5mm

# 70 = 350kg (700lb) / 1.96mm

500# kevlar should do the trick. you can usually find it at dive shops.

size 50 is what I use

500lb is standard for me, 700lb if there are toothy critters around .
